PCC and cell formation in Guernsey

Today, as the industry continues to develop and evolve, the Protected Cell Company (PCC) structure is receiving a new focus. Industry statistics reported an increase of 60 protected cells and four incorporated cells in Guernsey alone in 2012. PCC’s can trace their origin to historical contractual cell structures. The need to ring fence assets and liabilities by statue rather than by contract gave rise to the development of the PCC concept, which originated in Guernsey and was introduced into Guernsey law in 1997.

"Lexology is a good barometer of a firm's expertise as the articles showcase a firm's understanding of the issues involved and how up to date their knowledge is. It's a good one stop solution where one is able to view the same law/cases from different perspectives; on the whole I would rate Lexology as a good service."
